My name is Camille Martichoux and from a young age, St. Jude has been a part of my life. My parents have always been donors, but how I personally got introduced was through a family friend battling cancer in 2016. Little Samar was just 2 when she was diagnosed and we wanted to do something to help. We joined a fundraising team for the St. Jude Walk/Run in the Bay Area to help kids like Samar and a hospital that gives families hope of getting past this disease. This was how I first learned that St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is a place that develops cutting edge treatments and helps families battling the worst cases of cancer…and you know what else? They share their treatments with hospitals around the world to make sure every child has a chance to beat cancer! They helped Samar by sharing their lifesaving care path with her doctors at Stanford. Samar is now a healthy tween but we continued this tradition even after after her recovery.
When I was 11, I started fundraising on my own, which grew into a movement of multiple Mission Possible teams! Last year, all the Mission Possible teams raised $57k together, and I’m hoping to surpass that this year!
Thank you so much for contributing to our mission to end pediatric cancer!
